Have you ever had to force yourself to finish an anime?
UTAWARERUMONO. Oh gosh, Utawarerumono... I got bored after about 6 episodes, but after I couldn't find anything else to watch I just decided to go back and watch that instead. IT TOOK ME FOREVER AND A HALF AND IT'S ONLY 26 EPISODES LONG. I could barely watch multiple episodes in one sitting. Not to mention that it was EXTREMEMLY hard to follow, and it only took me a few minutes to forget how an episode ended.

@S o u d a
You could try the manga Superior Day, it has many unexpected turns (at least for me).
Maybe also Holyland and Destroy and Revolution (by the same author, both have a character struggling to find their place).

Oh and xxxHolic is a good psychological anime as well (mix between comedy and psychological).

[Nitro Indigo]

The problem is, they don't really show any good animes on TV in the UK...

[buddha -]

around here they have shown puella mai madoka magica on a child's channel.
a child's channel.

Have you ever had to force yourself to finish an anime?

Molly I feel you Leon's breakdown in the anime is why I hate the anime like NO I DID NOT EVER NEED OR WANT THAT THE GAME WAS BAD ENOUGH BUT AT LEAST I COULD LAUGH AT 'AHO AHO AHO AHO' BUT NO THE ANIME WAS TORTURE NONE OF THAT WAS OKAY NONE OF HIS REACTION WAS OKAY HIS FEAR AND PAIN WERE NOT OKAY I HATE THE DANGAN RONPA ANIME FLIPS A TABLE.

Hnngg what did I force myself to finish let's see.

TBH It's more what I haven't finished everything I've finished I liked. I never finished Soul Eater and a bunch of others because I just lost interest or got into something else and there's some anime/manga I WANT to finish like Gin no Saji and Blood Lad, especially Blood Lad, but I am the laziest person on the face of the earth

Goes back in corner and sobs to self bc Leon

Whispers Molly drop Durarara like a hot plate and watch Baccano! instead a million times better lmao

*According to TV Tropes*, some channel once showed PMMM in a kid's timeslot and only cut out one scene. Also according to TV Tropes, some Brazilian channel tried to air FMA03 in their kid's timeslot and it was basically 4Kids-ified.

I ENJOY LOOKING AT FUNIMATION'S WEBSITE EVEN THOUGH I CAN'T WATCH ANYTHING. Why is Hetalia MA?

[Malleus]

Because Hetalia is like 90% sexual innuendos lmao

I think it's MA because of the humor and the swearing and stuff the humor is p adult

mmhm thats how i finished yowamushi pedal and makai ouji, at the beginning both seemed okay but the endings were lame and forced ugh. i had to force myself to watch uta no prince sama too - i really liked the style and the lot of bishies but i hate harems so thats it
and there are a bunch of animes i just dropped bc i lost interest eg shinsekai yori, durarara and hyouka

[Nitro Indigo]

Thing is, though, ages ago, on PF1, there was a clan dedicated to younger users... and there were a bunch of people in it who wouldn't shut up about Hetalia. O_o

On the other end of the spectrum, FMA03's age ratings surprise me. Sure, it doesn't have life ketchup spillages more-or-less every episode like FMAB, but that scene at the end of the penultimate episode... /rhetorical

[buddha -]

i already dropped drrr!! like i had two friends obsessed with it and they p much made me watch it but. I was not intrigued tbh

baccano!! looks good tho hhng but I needa watch samurai flamenco gatchaman crowds love live kyoukai no kanata and candy boy or really just 928384773 animes.

also why is the train named flying pussyfoot
